In this grim darkness of Episode 55, there is only war!  We tackle one of the big dogs of the miniatures wargaming world, Warhammer 40K from Games Workshop.  Listen to find out how two common gamers delved into this classic, and find out if it's a "buy, try, or deny".  Plus, John gives an update on the beginnings of his Rogue Trader campaign.  It's a veritable "Hammerpalooza"!

In this episode, we visit the GM Academy for a discussion of live-action roleplaying games (or LARPs).  Cody will bring us his sage wisdom about this oft-maligned area of the gaming hobby.  And we head to Vegas, baby, for a full review of Lords of Vegas from Mayfair Games.  Are you all in?
